Make the Overall cash balance widget available in the web version
We have quite a few bank accounts and it currently quite difficult to see at a glance the total balance across all of them on my dashboard. Frustratingly the exact widget for this is available in the Mobile version but not in the web version. Can you please add it to the web version?

Changing Financial Year
Hi Xero Support,
We have already raised a query regarding the change in the current financial year, but it is still showing the previous financial year. Due to this, we are facing issues fetching the required data from Xero.
Please look into this and resolve it at the earliest.
Thank you.

Improve User Permissions for Bookkeeping Clients and Restore Published Report Downloads
The new Xero user permissions do not work well for accounting and bookkeeping firms that manage Xero on behalf of business owners.
There are two issues I would like Xero to address:
Issue One: Restore published report downloads for the “Manage Client” role
For existing organizations, the user permissions screen may look the same as it did previously, but the actual permissions associated with those roles have changed.
For example, users assigned the Manage Client role were previously able to view and download published reports. Those users can now view published reports but can no longer download them.
Please restore…

Doing Business As, dba, brands
"Doing Business As" is an important aspect of doing business because it allows separation of business and organizational administration as well as important banking, tax and branding functions. Something as mundane as cashing a check at the bank can be done in the name of your registered brand or dba but not if the check is written out to an LLC or Inc. However, there doesn't seem to be a way to make this distinction officially in the Xero software. As an example, my company is X-Ray and Digital Services, LLC but I do business and all my branding is…

Allow Sales & Purchases Users to Export Aged Receivables and Aged Payables Reports
Xero has recently improved user permissions so that users with the Sales & Purchases – reports for sales & purchases role can access Aged Receivables and Aged Payables reports without also being given access to all financial reports.
This is a very welcome improvement, particularly for administration staff who need access to debtor and creditor information as part of their day-to-day roles, but who should not have access to sensitive reports such as the Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet or bank account information.
Unfortunately, these users can currently view and run the Aged Receivables and Aged Payables reports but cannot…1 voteThanks for submitting your idea on Xero Product Ideas. We appreciate you taking time to let us know how we could improve Xero for you.

non profit standard setup
Provide a standard setup for non-profits complete with all the correct reporting and terminology. In the age of AI this should be standard option for end users.

User permissions - ability to select more options
It would be great to be able to select/deselect more options under each role if the role isn't quite right.
E.g. I need a user to be able to view all the previous invoices and create new ones but not be able to approve invoices. Neither Sales nor Draft sales roles offer this option.

Backup
When coding expenditure, my farmlands account has a month's expenditure and some transactions need splitting into business or personal. So entering details for a single bill can take an hour. There is no saving of data entered if I get disconnected from the internet although many people have apparently requested this. It was suggested I enter data offline in the Xero app, then synch it when going online, but i cannot do this because there is no option of 'none' in the tracking categories. Is it possible to reconcile a transaction then edit it later? I like Xero because it…

User Roles - Restrict Users from accessing Notes & History for contacts *sensitive financial information*
Currently when you grant a user the ability to draft sales and purchases, this comes with the ability for that user to access the notes & history for all contacts. This contains sensitive financial information associated with that contact.
It would be useful to add in to Settings > Users > Permissions to be able to restrict access to contact notes & history as an option across all user permissions.

user added email notification
An emaill notification of a new user being added to the file plus a history of who added someone the file should be set up as a security to the those who manager users. This audit trail is important to the security of the files and a good backup check.

Permissions - Access to view but not reconcile bank account
Standard User Roles - Toggle ability to reconcile transactions. Would like the option for Standard Users to have full visibility of the bank (Reconcile tab included) but just not be able to reconcile any invoices/bills/spend moneys
2 votesHi there, thanks for sharing this idea about allowing users to view bank accounts and the Reconcile tab without being able to reconcile transactions. Thanks for letting us know how separating visibility from the ability to make changes could help businesses delegate banking tasks while keeping tighter control over financial actions. We’ve opened this idea for community support so others can vote and add context. This will help us understand the broader need and gauge the impact for other Xero users.
We’ll continue to monitor the feedback and engagement on this idea and update the thread if there’s more to share.

Manual Journals - Approval workflow and permission
Permissions - User Roles to Submit and Approve Journals.
There is currently just an option to "save as draft" or "post" so no approval workflow or audit trail on approvals.
Users should have custom permission to create/submit or approve journals.
2 votesThanks for sharing your feedback. We understand the need for more flexibility around who can create and post manual journals. A dedicated approval workflow could make it easier for teams to delegate journal preparation.
We've moved this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue gathering feedback. If this could help your team, add your vote and share what you'd like the approval workflow to include.

User Settings - Ability to update invite user email
Individuals with the ability to manage users should be able to change and update email addresses for users rather than having to delete the user and add again.

Organisations - bulk update lock dates across multiple entities
It would be great when you have multiple entities in Xero to be able to have a consol which allows high level options across the group. i.e. Shows the companies - locked/unlocked for a specific month. Rather than me having to go into each entity and lock at month end, I would like to go to a single page and select all my entities and a date an lock for that date. Likewise for FX rates in the group - 1 page with the FX rates for the group, this would help eliminate the variances that occur on entering for…

As this post contains multiple ideas, I've made changes so we can continue tracking the Bulk Lock Date update feature here.

User - Customizable Viewer permissions by feature and tracking category
Viewer permissions - Ability to customize Viewer permission for users. Eg If I want to provide viewing access to only Bills but not for Bank accounts. Also, ability to provide access to users based on Reporting tracking category, this is very useful for not-for-profit organization, where many staff are volunteer and we would like to assign user based on reporting category.
3 votesThanks for raising this, Reshma. We understand the request for more flexible View Only permissions, so access could be limited to specific areas.

Users Settings - Alphabetical order
I would like to Xero to revert Users back to alphabetical order again. Or at least give Admin permissions to sort. Alphabetical is much quicker when looking to see if someone already has permssions.

Dual login for partners/BAS Agents
Dual Login option for Partners
Under user drop down have another profile for partners and BAS Agents to use in client Xero accounts that do not have BAS Agent details attached.
This will allow agents to view client BAS for clients they are not the BAS agent for.
Currently BAS agents cannot see BAS for clients that have connected to ATO directly with their business credentials.
This would replace the current work around of adding another user with different email for the Partner to assist clients with BAS settings etc.
1 voteAppreciate you raising this, Renee.
We understand the ask for dual login feature where BAS agents/partners can switch to a profile without agent credentials.
As a clarification, clients can connect their Xero organisation to the ATO as business users, after which BAS agents and partners with the appropriate access can view the client's BAS from within the organisation. A separate client login isn't required for this workflow.
We've updated the status to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking community interest. Add your vote if a dual login option could help with other account management needs and let us know more about your use case.

Lock Dates - Add timed auto-locking feature for lock dates
Please add an option to temporarily unlock accounts. For example, a user could unlock them for five minutes, see a countdown, and have them automatically lock again when time ends. This would prevent users from forgetting to re-lock the accounts and reduce the risk of accidental changes.
(The unlock should apply only to that user, while all other users remain locked out.)3 votesHi Muhammad, thanks for starting this conversation. We understand the request for a temporary lock date unlock that automatically restores the lock after a set time. This could be a useful option for teams that occasionally need to make adjustments after a period has been closed.
I’ve updated the post to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking community feedback. If you have a preferred way for the timer or auto-lock to work, please share it below.

Xero Central | Profile - Option to sync profile picture with Xero blue avatar or remove from Xero Central
Currently, you can't change your profile picture in Xero Central - which is bizarre, because you can change it in the "My Xero" profile.
Therefore, in the spirit of "one ledger", surely profile pictures entered manually in My Xero profile should sync your Xero Central profile.
1 voteThanks for sharing this suggestion, Hayley. We understand the request for more control over your profile picture in Xero Central, including the option to sync your Xero profile picture or remove it and return to the default avatar.
